as one can see i modified the ebuild and changed MP_AP_PREFIX = /usr/include/apache2 (was just /usr) because it wasn't finding the apache include files. i also had to add a symlink called include in the apache2 include dir back to itself. in both cases the compile fails in the same place. there is a thread in the forums about this now: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=25049&highlight=modperl+apache2 [root@byzantine:/home/erock]# ACCEPT_KEYWORDS="~x86" emerge mod_perl Calculating dependencies ...done! >>> emerge (1 of 1) dev-perl/mod_perl-1.99.07 to / >>> md5 ;-) mod_perl-1.99_07.tar.bz2 >>> Unpacking source... >>> Unpacking mod_perl-1.99_07.tar.bz2 >>> Source unpacked.

I traced the problem to src/modules/perl/modperl_constants.c which wasn't finding some APR_POLL* declarations found in /usr/include/apache2/apr_poll.h. Unfortunately, the modperl_constants.c file is a generated file generated by lib/ModPerl/Code.pm. I had to use the following kludge to add the extrac "#include <apr_poll.h>" line into the modperl_constants.c file: --- mod_perl-1.99_07/lib/ModPerl/Code.orig.pm 2003-01-24 14:35:29.000000000 -0 500 +++ mod_perl-1.99_07/lib/ModPerl/Code.pm 2003-01-24 14:36:40.000000000 -0 500 @@ -638,6 +638,9 @@ push @preamble, "#ifndef $d\n#define $d\n"; push @{ $self->{postamble}->{$name} }, "\n#endif /* $d */\n"; } + elsif ($name =~ /modperl_constants\.c/) { + push @preamble, qq{\#include "mod_perl.h"\n\#include <apr_poll.h>\n\n}; + } elsif ($name =~ /\.c/) { push @preamble, qq{\#include "mod_perl.h"\n\n}; } I will send the patch as an attachment in the following comment. After doing this, it compiles and installs fine.
Created attachment 7605 [details, diff] Fix for getting a successful compile for mod_perl-1.99.07
All of this has been fixed in 1.99.08 in the file src/modules/perl/modperl_apache_includes.h: *** modperl-2.0/src/modules/perl/modperl_apache_includes.h 2002/08/21 16:42:02 1.17 --- modperl-2.0/src/modules/perl/modperl_apache_includes.h 2003/01/10 23:26:03 1.19 *************** *** 19,24 **** --- 19,31 ---- #include "http_vhost.h" #include "ap_mpm.h" + #ifndef APR_POLLIN + /* + * apr_poll.h introduced around 2.0.40 + * APR_POLL* constants moved here around 2.0.44 + */ + #include "apr_poll.h" + #endif #include "apr_lib.h" #include "apr_strings.h" #include "apr_uri.h"
BTW, 1.99_08 build out of the box by copying the 1.99_07 ebuild and bumping up NEWP and updating the SRC_URI. I will submit a new bug request to add 1.99_08.
Added bug 14503
i just added the new one and deleted the old one. thanks a bunch for your analysis/reports.
